Back to Gallery

The property, also known as the Burr Mansion, is a historical landmark – City Landmark No. 31. Built in 1875 by former San Francisco mayor Ephraim William Burr for his family, the estate at 1772 Vallejo St. survived the 1906 earthquake. Asking $6.995 million, the 5 bedroom, 4.5 bath Italianate mansion home sits on an huge triple lot up a gated driveway. The listing notes that the home has been “meticulously restored,” with expansive gardens and also a guest cottage.

Given that the property was only on the market for just a day, it will be interesting to find out how much the buyer offered to get their hands on this unique property.
